The City of Castlegar Guestbook

“ I lived in Robson with my brother for a year--1981-82. Is the dam still up crossing the river and has the ferry expanded?? Tried to look for pictures of them, but couldn't find any on this site. Also, my uncle used to own the Shell station in China Creek--spent many summers there growing up!! Hope to make a trip that way soon--will sure bring up alot of good memories!! ”
